Project Execution Plans
A Project Execution Plan pulls governance, roles, procurement, design management, programme, cost control, risk and reporting into one place. It tells the whole team how the project runs and gives funders and boards confidence that it is under control.

When you need it
- A funder, board or public client requires a PEP before release of funds
- You are starting a project with a new team or a new client
- Responsibilities between client, consultants and contractor are unclear
- The scheme is a higher-risk building and dutyholder roles need setting out
What you receive
A structured PEP in Word and PDF, written for your project rather than lifted from a template, with an organogram, responsibility matrix and milestone schedule.
Turnaround
Typically 1 to 2 weeks.
From brief to approved document.
Brief
Send drawings, the planning decision notice and the condition wording. We confirm scope, fee and timescale in writing within one working day.
Draft
We prepare the programme, plan or drawings and flag the assumptions and risks we have made.
Review
We walk you through it, take comments from your team and revise.
Issue
You receive final native files and PDFs. For CMPs we stay on through council comments until the condition is discharged.
Frequently asked
Is a PEP the same as a Construction Phase Plan?
No. The Construction Phase Plan is the principal contractor's health and safety document required under CDM 2015. The PEP covers how the whole project is run, of which health and safety is one part.
Who should own the PEP?
Usually the client or their project manager. We write it with you, and it should be updated at key stages.
Do you write PEPs for public sector frameworks?
Yes. We can follow a client's own PEP structure where they have one.
